A Landscape Matrix: the EM tool and the via Appia

Matteo Lombardi
Abstract:
This paper approaches the application of the Extended Matrix Tool to a broader landscape context. The idea underpinning this research is that this tool has a great potential in de-structuring landscape complexities and bridging together specialists from different fields thanks to semantic modelling. The selected case study, the II mile of the via Appia, frames a multi-stratified scenario made of a combination of Roman funerary monuments, private villas, squatters, homeless and XVIII-XIX century casals. This case study offers the opportunity to test a workflow in which archaeological data and 3D visualisations could effectively enhance archaeological research as much as foster multidisciplinarity.
